Notes:

June 2006 – Tim Hills: A fine, expansive and healthy tree. A fluted trunk with an outpouring of branches from 10′ and above. Some have been allowed to reach the ground, many more have been cut to prevent this. Its known planting date of 1730 means that it has grown rapidly. Since its girth was recorded in 1988 it has increased by about 7”/8” in 18 years. Girth in 2006 was 14′ 8” at 1′ (2′ 6” lower slope).
